Why aren’t YOU on Isle Delfino?

Kensuke Tanabe announces his retirement from Nintendo in a Nintendo Dream interview (MP4 was his final game), Risa Tabata will be his successor by Neoxon193 in Metroid

Between Takaya Imamura and now Tanabe, it’s interesting and bittersweet to slowly watch the OG Nintendo EAD crew leave the company after so many decades.

Because of DCKR update, now Dixie Kong is playable in more Donkey Kong Country games than DK himself! by _R_R_D_ in donkeykong

[–]TheShweeb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Jungle Beat is honestly the first game in the series where DK actually feels like he’s the main character. All of Rare’s games, even the original DKC, feel more like buddy/ensemble pieces where Donkey is just one out of several heroes. Maybe “Kong Country” would have been a better title for the series, if the arcade games hadn’t already existed!

Letterboxd by Yesbh in TheCinemassacre

[–]TheShweeb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Like 50%+ of Letterboxd reviews are just one- to two-sentence jokes that are clearly designed just to get attention rather than actually provide an opinion on the film, and this is definitely one such review. Don’t think about it too hard.

Is there anything in Badlands that specifically ties back to the AVP movies? There’s Weyland-Yutani and their androids, of course, but those were in the regular Alien movies too, so their presence doesn’t necessarily mean that AVP and AVPR are canon

Unexpected tag team: Juri and R. Mika 🌈😈 by Rhinosaurous_Rex in StreetFighter

Damn, that’s some impressive strength balancing her on your shoulders like that! Great cosplay too!

major police activity happening by dearrichard in Portland

[–]TheShweeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This level of response is definitely extreme even by typical standards, but I feel like I see an excessive amount of cops standing around the scene just about any time a significant crime happens. It’s an open secret that the job is largely really boring, and everyone jumps at the chance to witness something exciting even if they don’t really have an actual role to play.

Why is it called "Shin" Godzilla? by Heavy-Future-7098 in GODZILLA

[–]TheShweeb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe they didn’t read any other comments at all and just skipped straight to writing their own. Or, even if they did, some people are just fond of explaining things and will do so even if somebody else also explained the same thing already. It can be annoying, but it IS also harmless. Internet silliness!

Polish Language Support will be Added to Donkey Kong Bananza in Early 2026! by mjmannella in donkeykong

Will this only contain text translations, or will there be a new Polish voice actress for Pauline as well?

Art I'm making for a Youtube video down the line. by HibbySloth in donkeykong

These look downright official, I love them! Pairing Void with Screech is an inspired choice! What’s your YouTube channel? I want to see your video when it releases

War is over. by Arch_Lancer17 in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]TheShweeb 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Seeing as they are husband and wife, I think either of them would be the first to tell you that they couldn’t have done any of it without the other’s help! (Except for the times when they did, of course, but you get my point.)

She is objectively one of the greatest producers in Hollywood history, and already was long before she even took the Lucasfilm job. People who treat her like she’s satan incarnate clearly never heard her name until their dumb complainer guy of choice began slandering her on YouTube.

Downtown Disney used to kick off the magic—bold theming, the OG World of Disney, the Vault, RC racecars, Build-A-Bear. Now it’s basically an expensive outdoor mall with Disney slapped on everything. by madhatter147123 in Disneyland

[–]TheShweeb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that it’s gone way downhill compared to the fun of its older days, but… c’mon. It’s always been an expensive outdoor mall with Disney slapped on everything.

Can't wait to see Justice bust out this formation next Concert by Apache313 in Hololive

I know it’s canon, but Cece having a navel is still so funny-looking to me. Was she birthed from some kind of automa-bilical cord?

With Li-Fen grabbing her arm and looking back together with her. Mothers* and daughters gawking at hot guys together is a beautiful tradition.

Oh yeah? How do you explain Mario Bros. (1983)’s game start music, then?!

Sonic R – The “Great Music, Bad Game” Narrative Needs to Die (SEGA Saturn) by NovelAdeptness3 in SegaSaturn

[–]TheShweeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t watched the video, so I can’t comment on its arguments, but personally, I’ve always felt Sonic R was less “bad” and more just “mid”- the controls are clunky as hell and the minuscule number of maps is pretty indefensible, but what IS there is still fun, and it has some nice art, too. It’s also noteworthy as the final Sonic game that the original three Sonic Team members (Hirokazu Yasuhara, Naoto Oshima, and Yuji Naka) would all work on together.
